COIL LIVE · THE MCP FEED

A live trading strategy your own AI agent can follow.

Point your AI agent at Coil's MCP and it gets the engine-grade board the live record trades from — structural stops, targets, conviction, lanes — refreshed about every 5 minutes while the market is open, plus the served trading discipline to run against it. Nothing to download, nothing to configure, no market-data account to create.

What this discipline did on a real account, settled through 2026-10-01: −3.14% over 60 sessions, against SPY’s +2.49% — behind the benchmark by 5.64pp. We publish it even when it trails, because a record you only show when it is winning is not a record. Your own agent will not reproduce these numbers — here is exactly why. Every session →

Coil Live is the step past reading a board yourself. The scanner stays on our side — the same one that publishes the live, benchmarked record — and your agent calls it like any other tool. One subscription, one header, and every live tool in our MCP answers, including two things sold nowhere else: the engine-grade feed and the served discipline.

What your agent gets, every call

Illustrative rows, not today's feed: each name carries its structural stop and target with their basis, risk-reward, buy score, conviction, entry lane and any leveraged vehicle; the served candidates[] list is what the discipline would act on right now, and an empty list is the discipline working.

  • get_engine_feed — everything in the full board plus the per-name fields the engine actually trades on: structural stop and target with their basis, risk-reward, buy score, conviction, entry lane, leveraged vehicle, ladder placement. These fields are never sold per-call and never appear on any public surface.
  • get_live_rules — the served discipline, versioned: cycle order, exits-first, stop derivation, the day-lane rhythm, sizing, fail-closed rules. When the rules improve, your agent gets the update on its next read — nothing to re-download, ever.
  • Every *_live tool without per-call payment — regime, buy list, single-name reads, sectors, leaders, day board, crypto reads: the whole live catalog, flat rate, at whatever cadence you like (we recommend every 5–10 minutes in market hours; 60 calls/min headroom per license).
  • The human surfaces too — the same key opens the Coil Scanner board and dashboard in your browser, so you can watch what your agent is reading. The $29 tier is a strict superset of the $12 one.
  • Unfiltered feed ~700KB · read once, then poll by symbols
  • 60 calls/min headroom per license
  • freshness.is_stale + next_refresh_at in every feed payload
  • Same key opens the Scanner board in your browser

Who does what

The division of labor is the product. Coil scores and serves; your agent decides and places; you own the account and the off switch.

CoilScores ~560 names about every 5 minutes in market hours and serves the board, levels and rules over MCP
Your agentReads the feed on its schedule, applies the served discipline, places and manages orders at your brokerage
YouOwn the account, set the cadence, arm it or keep it in dry-run — and can revoke your agent's broker access at any time. The off switch is yours, not ours.

  1. SubscribeCard checkout via Gumroad, the merchant of record; your license key arrives instantly. Prefer a full order page? /buy/live.
  2. Hand your agent the keyMCP: add https://mcp.coil.trade/mcp as a server with header X-License-Key: your-key. Plain HTTPS: GET https://coil.trade/api/live/feed with the same header. Either way, tell your agent: “call get_live_setup and follow it.”
  3. Let it run dry firstThe served discipline tells every agent to start in dry-run — printing intended orders, placing nothing — until you explicitly arm it. Coil can’t enforce that on your machine and doesn’t pretend to; it is rule one of the rulebook your agent reads, and the arm switch is yours.

The whole connection, verbatim. It is the same shape as the Robinhood command, pointed at Coil's server:

claude mcp add --transport http coil https://mcp.coil.trade/mcp \
  --header "X-License-Key: YOUR_GUMROAD_LICENSE_KEY"

Simulated: after one add command, get_live_setup returns product, price and header form; get_live_rules returns the versioned rulebook whose first rule is dry-run; get_engine_feed returns the scored board with its candidates list and freshness flags.

Three tools to know. get_live_setup returns the product, price, cadence and the exact header form — call it first, it needs no key:

curl -s https://mcp.coil.trade/mcp -H "content-type: application/json" -H "accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_live_setup","arguments":{}}}'

get_engine_feed returns the board the record trades from: per-name structural stop and target, conviction, entry lane, the vehicle attached when a setup earns one, and a served candidates[] list — an empty list means the discipline is working, not an outage, and the payload says so. get_live_rules returns the versioned rulebook with its changelog. Every feed payload carries field_notes, timestamps_note and freshness.is_stale, so your agent never guesses at vocabulary or does clock math. The rest of the live catalog opens on the same key. Checked against the live server 2026-09-01.

What you are buying is the discipline, not the returns

The record on our results page is one real account — ours — running these rules with real money, published every session including the losing ones. It is evidence that the discipline works when it is followed. It is not a result your agent inherits, and we would rather tell you that here than have you find out in month two.

Your agent reads the same feed and follows the same rulebook, and it will still trade differently than ours does. Every one of these pulls the two apart:

Illustrative: identical signals still print different numbers once your fills, your equity and your clock are applied; what transfers is the discipline, not the profit and loss.

TimingThe board re-scores about every 5 minutes and your agent polls on its own schedule, so it reads a different snapshot than ours did. A name that is a candidate at 10:31 can be filled, extended past its entry, or gone by 10:38.
Signal stateEntry eligibility moves during the session. Two agents polling the same feed minutes apart get different candidate lists — that is the feed working, not a fault.
Your equityEvery size resolves against your balance: the position cap, the risk floor, the rule that skips a trade whose capped risk is too small to matter. The same name is a different trade at $2,000 than at $200,000 — and sometimes, correctly, no trade at all.
Your fillsYour orders execute at your broker, at your moment, across your spread. Identical decisions still print different prices.
Settled cashSettlement timing and your pattern-day-trader budget decide which entries you are permitted to take at all that session.
Your settingsDry-run or armed, how often you poll, which lanes you enable, any name you exclude. All yours, and all of it moves the outcome.

So read the record for what it actually proves: that the stop derivation, the entry guards, the sizing precedence and the exits-first cycle add up to something that has been run on a real account and shown its work every session, up and down. That discipline is the product. The feed is how your agent receives it, kept current. The number at the end of your own year is yours.

Which Coil is right for you

Coil Scanner is the board in a browser tab, for the trader who places their own orders. Coil Live serves your agent our board — the one computed from the data the live record actually trades — with stops, targets, lanes and the served discipline. The question is who places the orders.

Common questions

Will my agent's results match the live record?

No — and that gap is not small print. Your agent polls at different moments than ours, so it sees a different candidate list; it sizes every position against your equity, not ours; and it fills at your broker, across your spread, under your own settled-cash and pattern-day-trader limits. What transfers between the two accounts is the discipline, not the profit and loss. Everything that makes them diverge →

Does Coil see my brokerage account or place my orders?

Never. Coil serves data and rules over MCP and HTTP; your agent runs on your machine, holds your broker connection, and places every order itself. We have no way to see your account, your keys, your balances or your orders. One honest footnote: if your agent filters the feed by symbol — the recommended way to keep calls small — those symbols reach our server as part of the request, tied to your license, like any API parameter. We ask for nothing else.

What will polling cost me?

The subscription is flat. Your agent's own token bill is yours, and the feed is the biggest lever on it: unfiltered, one read is about 700KB, so the setup tool tells your agent to read it once per session and then poll with a symbols filter (your open positions plus the served candidates). At the recommended cadence that is a few small calls an hour.

What happens if I cancel?

The feed stops at period end, and the served discipline is written to fail closed: it tells an agent that loses the feed to stop opening new positions and keep managing its exits from its own local records. Cancelling never strands you mid-trade blind.

Is there a trial?

Yes: 7 days free. Your card is taken at checkout and charged when the 7 days end, unless you cancel first from your Gumroad library. Before you start, get_live_setup answers with no key, the free preview shows a delayed slice of the same board, and the record is public down to the session.

Which AI agents work with Coil Live?

Any strong coding agent that can call an MCP server or plain HTTPS and run on a schedule — Claude Code is what we run ourselves, but nothing here is Claude-only. Your agent sends the license key as a header; that is the whole integration.

The fine print, plainly

  • Impersonal by design. Every subscriber sees identical numbers. Nothing here is individualized investment advice; markets can lose money, and the discipline bounds losses rather than preventing them.
  • Renews until you cancel. Monthly or yearly, billed by Gumroad; cancel from your library and access runs to period end. No prorated refunds on partial periods; billing errors are always corrected. The policy in full.
  • What reaches our server. Your license key and whatever your agent asks for, including the symbols it filters by. Never your broker connection, keys, balances or orders.
  • The rules can change. Improvements are served on your agent's next read, versioned and logged in the changelog it can read; if you want your agent to hold a version, tell it to.
